Country Music Fans Think Ella Langley Might Be Referencing Riley Green & Megan  Moroney With “Choosin' Texas' Cover Art | Whiskey Riff

Fans Think Ella Langley’s New Song “Choosin’ Texas” Is Throwing Shade at Riley Green and Megan Moroney

Of course, over the past year, we’ve all seen the rumors swirling around Ella Langley and her duet partner Riley Green — the pair fans have been obsessed with ever since they dropped their hit song “You Look Like You Love Me” last year.

Things only got messier when Megan Moroney somehow got pulled into the conversation, with speculation about a possible love triangle heating up after she was spotted hanging out with Riley. Fans haven’t stopped trying to piece it all together since.

The rumors really took off after Riley and Megan were first seen together at his Nashville bar, Duck Blind, and later riding around in his vintage Chrysler LeBaron convertible in Jacksonville, Alabama. That viral TikTok clip — yes, the one everyone’s seen — only fueled the fire.

Now, Ella Langley has officially announced her new single “Choosin’ Texas,” which she co-wrote with country superstar Miranda Lambert. The song drops this Friday (October 17), and fans can’t help but notice the album artwork looks suspiciously familiar — almost identical to that viral picture of Riley and Megan.

The cover shows a cowboy in a hat, a vintage car, and a blonde woman — and the resemblance hasn’t gone unnoticed.

Fans were quick to flood the comments:

“Does this not look just like the picture everyone was saying was Riley and Megan before?”
“Yesss ma’am throwing a bit of shade with the cover.”
“The song of the year getting absolutely supreme artwork omfg.”

Others chalked it up to coincidence, pointing out that none of the imagery really connects to Texas directly. Still, the similarities are hard to ignore.

Langley recently opened up about how “Choosin’ Texas” came to life, sharing that she and Miranda Lambert had already written one song together before Lambert told her a wild story about an ex. Langley responded by joking, “I’m sure he said, ‘She’s from Texas, I can tell.’”

From there, the hook practically wrote itself.

“It just hit us like a bag of bricks,” Langley said. “We came up with this right here, and we’re putting it out next Friday. This one’s called ‘Choosin’ Texas.’”

Whether the artwork is a subtle message or just clever coincidence, fans are already calling this one a future hit. And if Miranda Lambert’s name is in the credits, there’s no doubt it’ll pack plenty of attitude and emotion.

One thing’s for sure — if there is any truth to the speculation, Ella and Riley have come a long way since their fiery duet “You Look Like You Love Me.”
